Travels to Bangalore



Manju feasting at Heathrow

 Our airport welcome

Manju's family...welcome party

Dr.Kallanna Manjunath, a past Parker parent, and I drove to Newark on Saturday afternoon, left for London at 10;15pm, arrived 7 hours later and after a 5 hour layover at Heathrow, began the second leg, 9 hours with a tailwind to Bangalore! We arrived on Monday morning at 5 am India time. Most of the Manjunath clan was at the airport to greet us with flowers and coffe and biscuits! What a fabulously warm welcome it was. We then were driven through the notorious Indian traffic into Bangalore where the overwhelming hospitality continued. Fabulous food, company and accomodations awaited us. What a wonderful beginning to this adventure!
